Sri Lanka v Pakistan | 5th ODI | Jul 26, 2015 | Hambantota | SL Innings

[MENTION=100918]Square Drive[/MENTION] enjoying the improved Anwar Ali?

 

[MMHS]

Angelo is showing what a set batsman with wickets at hand can do in last few overs. Did the match started on time?

 

[ExplicitAI]

You guys can't blame one bowler for bowling rubbish, everyone is responsible for this horrid performance apart from Malik

 

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan would struggle against poms , mark my words.

 

[cricketInsight]

Obviously not yet. Will find out later.

But u dont get banned until its your second fault in x amount of games - first one only gets a fine.

 

[Belawal2014]

Always thought Siriwardena was a good looking fellow, anyone else?

 

[Pete Rose]

Any bets on Ahmed Shehzad's score off the first 30 balls he faces?

 

[Asif321]

yasir shah laughing like

 

[Justcrazy]

Waqar as bowling coach a total failure!!! Even Hick Steath of Zimbabwe is a far better bowling coach

He is at best a mentor , coaching is not his cup of tea.

 

[Madplayer]

Pathetic fielding by yasir shah. Hahah best fielding side.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Well done SL. You have won the game already. Unless a Malik special.

 

[Man Of Steel]

Once opposition is aggressive , Waqar runs out of ideas.

He can't come out to field, all he can do is give ideas which the new captain can't execute on field.

 

[Madplayer]

Any bets on Ahmed Shehzad's score off the first 30 balls he faces?

Should be 35-40 . will be 20-22

 

[Flat_Track_Bully]

Pakistan will chase this down within 40 overs.

 

[BleedGreen]

 

[Bullet Drive]

Anwar Ali again......... I'm shocked at how clueless Azhar Ali is.

 

[LegbreakGoogly]

Poor bowling to say the least. . . .

 

[Pete Rose]

Some posters were asleep during the first 4 odis, it seems

 

[Justcrazy]

lol - such nonsense - is Waqar the captain?

If captain is not having a plan , coach has to pass some ideas , coach is not paid to sit in chair and have tea

 

[cricketInsight]

Pakistan might want to rethink about that tri series

 

[ammar93]

Imad Wasim must want to crawl into a hole at the moment lol.

 

[DRS]

Any bets on Ahmed Shehzad's score off the first 30 balls he faces?

The burning question is whether he would last that long given the huge target, which would, ofcourse, test how mentally strong are our openers.

 

[Abdullah719]

Anwar Ali again......... I'm shocked at how clueless Azhar Ali is.

Yeah, he should bowl Imad Wasim at the death.

 

[Madplayer]

Shoaib malik will have to play a big part in winning this if Pakistan has chase thos successfully.

 

[BleedGreen]

360 on the cards here

 

[Dios]

Rahat looking back clueless again.

As always I'm correct....

Yasir is a terrible ODI bowler. Rahat Ali is a terrible ODI bowler... Anwar Ali is a terrible bowler full stop.... Irfan coming back from injury......

I'm very very happy these useless bowlers are exposed.

Who is there that's better? All the bowlers that Pakistan have tried recently seem to be useless.

 

[Indiafan]

so afterall SL is not such a poor side. We have played the series well so far

They are too dependent on Perera and Matthews. Dilshan is too old and everyone else sucks. Two times they have done well is when Perera has played well.

 

[cricfan967]

Anwar is undoubtedly the poorest bowler currently in international Cricket. How he's getting overs at the death is bemusing.

[Man Of Steel]

Yeah punish them boy, smash them into oblivion

 

[Arsal_AK]

Anwar Ali is the definition of mediocrity. How in the world is he still in the team is beyond me??

Did Waqar and Azhar really expect something else??

 

[Abdullah719]

Looks like the wrist-slitters are out in full force. For them, party to ab shuru hui hai.

 

[Flat_Track_Bully]

Any bets on Ahmed Shehzad's score off the first 30 balls he faces?

If he scores less then 20 runs I am going to haunt him in his dreams for the rest of his life.

 

[zabalestmsm]

What if stick with Hammad Azam instead and give him a long run like Anwar Ali? I know for sure he will be a better bowler than Anwar Ali. Or at least Hammad Azam must be in the squad. As a backup at least.

 

[uberkoen]

360 on the cards here

Impossible. 350 max!

 

[BleedGreen]

lakh laanat by our bowlers today

 

[Madplayer]

Even luck isnt favouring Pakistan today.

 

[Flat_Track_Bully]

Pakistan must make 250 to achieve moral victory.

 

[cricfan967]

Anwar Ali is the definition of mediocrity. How in the world is he still in the team is beyond me??

Did Waqar and Azhar really expect something else??

Forget that he is in the team, he is bowling our death overs , I thought that role's reserved for your best...

Annu being hammered

 

[ExplicitAI]

Can I bowl please

 

[b.lesner]

pakistan bowling exposed thats why i was saying play 3 or 4 new bowlers

 

[Red Devil]

Wow, what a cracking shot!

 

[Madplayer]

Carnage. 370 defo on the cards.

 

[DRS]

One should give all credit to Waqar younis for standing nonsensical bowlers like Anwar Ali who despite knowing the draw backs of length balls, bowls it again.

 

[Man Of Steel]

This has been such flogging, SL kept their best for the last game

 

[Arsal_AK]

I mean look at the crap he is bowling. That line and lenght at his pace.....

Ten years old would know better.

more as I write.

 

[Madplayer]

Can I bowl please

In place of yasir? Yes please

 

[zabalestmsm]

Mukhtar will be missed for such type of chases especially
Think tank missed the trick.

 

[cricfan967]

380?

[BleedGreen]

345/4

2 overs to go

 

[uberkoen]

Last two overs from Irfan and Ali would be a mistake. They're getting obliterated

Might as well try something different.

 

[BleedGreen]

Impossible. 350 max!

345/4

2 overs to go

you sure?

 

[Madplayer]

This has been such flogging, SL kept their best for the last game

More than what you asked for.

 

[Belawal2014]

Pakistan will chase this down within 40 overs.

For that, we need the guy in your DP in place of Shezzzzzzy.

 

[Master Leo]

Always thought Siriwardena was a good looking fellow, anyone else?

Not impressed, does not look a composed, confident player. Prefer pathirana over him
Wait...you didn't mean he is handsome, did you?

 

[Bullet Drive]

Crazy team.

 

[ViciousMachine]

Last 5 overs, 75 runs.... ouch

 

[Asif321]

it can happen it doesnt mean our bowlers are rubbish . didnt Wahab gave away 90 runs against SA

 

[Ryankhan]

Is it srilanka vs zim or what? what happened to PAk today? azar ali looks lost but i wont blame em, bowlers are doing nothing. is it such a flat track that no bowler can trouble batsman? if that is the case then i hope pak chase this with ease because srilanka bowling is worse then pak bowling and no malinga aswell today...i expect pk to win this one. mukhtar should have played this match and irfan should have been rested

 

[Arsal_AK]

If he scores less then 20 runs I am going to haunt him in his dreams for the rest of his life.

Lets not rule out that duck.

 

[zabalestmsm]

Can Hammad Azam or Bilawal Bhatti be considered for the upcoming ODI series? Anwar Ali's bowling record has been horrible!

 

[BleedGreen]

 

[Abdullah719]

Last 5 overs, 75-0.

 

[Shafi]

The new Pakistan team will crumble under scoreboard pressure and will be bowled out under 200.

 

[Justcrazy]

Lack of Plan B is evident.

 

[BleedGreen]

:/

 

[uberkoen]

345/4

2 overs to go

you sure?

I was hopeful.

 

[Madplayer]

Fielding has gone out of the window today.

 

[Justcrazy]

Waqar should be.send to National Academy as bowling mentor

 

[JibranAnsari]

Lets see how our opening batsmen do today

 

[Belawal2014]

Not impressed, does not look a composed, confident player. Prefer pathirana over him
Wait...you didn't mean he is handsome, did you?

I did.

 

[Arsal_AK]

Mukhtar will be missed for such type of chases especially
Think tank missed the trick.

Mukhtar should stick to T20s.

 

[Madplayer]

Will they score 380?

 

[BleedGreen]

If we lose while being close to this target, I wouldn't mind as long as we tried and it shows Pak has really improved.

 

[uberkoen]

Highest runs scored by Sri Lanka against Pakistan (prior to this game) 349-9 (The Padang, Singapore 1995/96)

They just broke a 20 year record.

 

[cricfan967]

All these issues are going to be overlooked as the series has been won. Once again, no changes will be brought.

[Flat_Track_Bully]

Only Misbah can chase this down

 

[BleedGreen]

Will they score 380?

I doubt it, should be around 370.

 

[Man Of Steel]

More than what you asked for.

Yes much more, never saw such terrible bowling from Pakistan for ages, I mean 15 RPO its getting way over!

 

[Shafi]

Pity Sri lanka missed out an opportunity to score 400
